Linda is a marketing consultant and has spent the last fifteen years delivering powerful and effective marketing strategies to clients. She has worked with businesses from 49 different industries (at last count!), substantially increasing their revenue as a result.

Her career started after graduating in marketing in 1992 when she moved to Barcelona and worked as a product manager for a multinational food business. She was then headhunted to work for a small marketing consultancy company and relocated to London. She subsequently established a consultancy division for a firm of business advisers and worked with a wide range of clients.

In 1997 Linda decided to pursue marketing opportunities in Australia and within 18 months she started her own consultancy business, Marketing Measures, in Sydney. At the same time she also formed a strategic alliance with top 6 accountancy firm, Horwath, consulting to both the practice and their client base.

As well as running her own business, she was asked to lecture and write a course in marketing for one of Australia´s most prestigious marketing establishments. She also had a weekly newspaper column in a leading business publication, answering readers´ marketing queries in the paper as well as serving as an online correspondent.

She gained Chartered Practising Marketer status by the Australian Marketing Institute in 1999, being the first marketing consultant to ever receive the award.

Linda returned to the UK in 2001 and set up the business in London.

More recently, she has been asked to sit on the panel and judge a top marketing awards event. Currently she is in discussions to consult to clients from a top 10 accountancy firm, a first in this country. She is also in the process of writing a book and is keen to launch her own television format.

Linda was interviewed and awarded Fellowship by the Chartered Institute of Marketing in 2003. This is the highest accolade you can achieve in marketing and she was the youngest individual in the country to receive the title.

She also speaks French and Spanish.

In her spare time, Linda enjoys travelling off the beaten track to far flung places, the great outdoors (preferably on mountain bike or in kayak!), experimental cooking and interior design.
